Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a double-lift open-shed Jacquard machine having two griff boxes which are movable in opposite directions to each other and pass each other, and having lifters controllable by main needles arranged transverse to the knives of the griff boxes, which lifters have two main noses associated with the movable knives and one holding-up nose associated with a fixed upper-shed knife.
  • Double-lift open-shed Jacquard machines having lifters developed with two legs are known. These lifters are provided with a main nose at the upper end of each leg and furthermore a holding-up nose on one leg. The main noses are associated with the crossing knives of the two griff boxes. These known lifters with the two long spring legs enter into undesired vibrations at high speeds of revolution so that the lifters which have been moved downward into the lower shed by one knife can come into engagement at their free unattached main nose with a knife of the ascending griff box. Errors in weave result therefrom.
  • the object of the present invention is to create a double-lift open-shed Jacquard machine with crossing griff boxes and with knives extending in traditional manner transverse to the main needles, in which the control movements of the main needles and of the lifters are reduced in order to obtain an increase in output by a favorable leasing-in movement.
  • the knives consist of a carrier part and two hook plates fastened thereto which have control hooks bent off in the direction towards the main noses of the lifters and arranged spaced apart from each other, that the shaping of the hook plates and their hooks permits in the control direction of the main needles the passage of the lifters up into a plane lying between the control hooks of a knife, and that the shank of the lifters has per se known manner a flat rectangular cross section the greater moment of flexure of which lies in the control direction of the main needles.
  • a double-lift open-shed Jacquard machine developed in accordance with the invention the individual lifters are moved perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the knives. Since at the same time a lifter which is not flexible in the control direction of the main needles, i.e. is rigid, is employed, their main noses and in particular also the knives must be so developed that they can engage one beneath the other when the lifter is to change its shed position and can slide past each other when the lifter is to remain in its basic position which corresponds to the lower-shed position.
  • the shaping of the hook plates which lie in front in the control direction and of their hooks is so selected that the main noses of the associated lifters and/or the upper end of the lifters can be swung through recesses into a plane which extends between the control hooks of a knife and is therefore parallel to the longitudinal direction of the knife.
  • the advantage is obtained of developing the lifters with flexural stiffness in the control direction, so that they can no longer enter into vibration even at high speeds of rotation.
  • control hooks and/or the main noses can be beveled so that their overlap increases upon the driving of a lifter.
  • the control hooks and the main noses preferably extend parallel to the longitudinal direction of the knives. Since the remaining distance between the control hooks of adjacent knives is very small, notches are provided also in the hook plates which are in the rear in the direction of control, the shanks of the lifters lying within said notches.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a first embodiment in side view and in front view
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show a second embodiment in side view and in front view
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show a third embodiment in front view and in side view
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 show a fourth embodiment in front view and in side view
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 show a fifth embodiment in front view and in side view
  • FIG. 11 shows diagrammatically the development of a double-lift open-shed Jacquard machine having five lifters in different control positions, seen in side view.
  • a knife 1 which consists of a carrier part 2 and two hook plates 3 and 4 fastened to it at a distance from each other, said plates having control hooks 5 and 6 which are bent obliquely upward in opposite directions at their free lower ends.
  • the hook plate 3 which is arranged in front as seen in the control direction is provided, between two control hooks 5, with an opening 7 for the passage of the upper end of a lifter 8.
  • the lifter 8 has a shank 9 of flat rectangular cross section whose larger width lies parallel to the main needle 10 and transverse to the longitudinal direction of the knife 1.
  • main hoses or projections 12 and 13 which protrude at a right angle are arranged at different heights, cooperating with the control hooks 5 and 6.
  • a holding-up nose or projection 14 is fastened to the shank 9 of the lifter 8, said nose cooperating with a fixed upper-shed knife 15.
  • a harness cord 16 is attached to the lower end of the lifter 8, said cord being conducted through a lifter bottom 17.
  • the upper end of the lifter 8 which bears the main nose 12 can pass, upon a corresponding control movement, through the opening 7 in the hook plate 3 so that it lies outside the path of movement of the control hook 5 between the two hook plates 3 and 4. Furthermore, the shank 9 of the lifter 8 can enter into notches 18 between the control hooks 6 on the hook plate 4.
  • the lifters 8 are guided between bars 19 of a grid, said bars being arranged parallel to the main needles 10. Furthermore, between the lifters 8 there are provided bars 20 of a grid which serve as stop for the vertical alignment of the lifters when the latter are not controlled by the main needles 10.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 corresponds extensively to the embodiment described above, with the sole difference that the two hook plates 3' and 4' are in this case arranged on one side of the carrier part 2.
  • the control hook 5' is bent upwards on its inside so that an opening 7' is produced.
  • the hook plates 3" and 4" are provided with control hooks 5" and 6" which are bent off in longitudinal direction and furthermore transversely to the longitudinal direction of the main needles 10.
  • These control hooks 5" and 6" cooperate with the lifters 8 which at the upper end of this shank 9 have a T-shaped head with main noses or projections 12" and 13" bent off transversely to the longitudinal direction of the main needles 10.
  • the head of the lifters 8 can be conducted into an opening 7 between two control hooks 5" or 6" while in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 the control hook 5" is extended to such an extent that an opening 7" remains between it and the hook plate 3", the main nose 12" being guided through said opening.
  • control hooks 5'" and 6'" are punched out of the hook plates 3'" and 4'", bent laterally out of the plane of the plate, and notched in V-shape at the upper end so that control hooks which are bent off transversely to the longitudinal direction of the main needles 10 are produced.
  • These control hooks cooperate with main noses or projections 12'" and 13'" which are also punched out of the shank 9 of the lifter 8 and bent out transversely to the longitudinal direction of the main needles 10.
  • the main nose 12'" can slide past the control hook 5'" on the inside when the corresponding lifter 8 is not to be moved out of its lower-shed position.
  • the lifters 8 are controlled in known manner by a pattern card 21 via a needle mechanism which consists of feeler needles 22, head needles 23 and the main needles 10, by means of a pressing grid 24 which is moved on a curve in the direction of the crossing double-ended arrows.
  • the corresponding feeler needle 22 has found a hole in the pattern card 21 so that the head needle 23 is not pushed off by the pressing grid 24 and therefore remains in position of rest together with the corresponding main needle 10.
  • the lifter 8 is thus not pushed off and it is therefore grasped by a lower knife 1 and pulled out of the lower shed position upwards into the upper shed position which corresponds to position B.
  • the feeler needle 22 of the lifter 8 which is in the upper-shed position has not found any hole in the pattern card 21 so that the lifter 8 is pressed off by the pressing grid 24 via the pre-needle mechanism and the holding-up nose 14 is thus pressed out of the range of the upper-shed knife 15.
  • the lifter 8 can thus be conducted into the lower-shed from position C with the knife 1.
